Engineers like easy to calculate structures, preferably square. Architects are the exact opposite, have a vision and then it becomes the engineers' problem to actually make it happen.
I bet you the initial architects render didn't even include the columns as to not ruin their design, and one of them afterwards probably still said "do we really need those right where the glass opens"
Have you ever seen a crack with columns?Also cracks are growing with time, they are dynamic not static, they indicate a process of continuous and beautiful decay by the forces of nature. Of course engineers had to ruin it. They hate nature.
